Remove the highly-outdated dependencies that doesn't provide content

Problem

A lot of System.* depdendencies used by Realm are for legacy .NET Standard 1.x and .NET Core 1.x world. They do nothing for current platforms and will regress build performance because of building large NuGet graph. Occasionally, they produces security alerts that gets warned by toolchains. Although they are not meaningful for current platforms, it takes additional effort to mitigate the warnings. For example, System.Net.WebSockets.Client 4.3.2 brought System.Net.Security 4.3.0 which has warnings, causing Realm adding a direct dependency to System.Net.Security 4.3.2, both of which are unnecessary.

Solution

Remove these dependencies from all target frameworks (netstandard2.0, net6.0 and net 8.0):

• System.Dynamic.Runtime
• System.Net.Security
• System.Net.WebSockets.Client

Remove these dependencies from .NET Core (net6.0 and net8.0), via conditional dependency in project file:

• System.Buffers
• System.Memory
• System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe
